"Winning Not Necessary," or "Losing is Fun"...or "The Great Losers' Brigade"

I don't know...I don't even know if such a linkshell already exists. But, what if we had a PvP linkshell where participating in a PvP match is all about building camaraderie, where all participants don't give a flying toss* about win/lose ratio, where one can just take a break from the more static PvE and jump into the unstable land of PvP -- knowing that your buddies are perfectly fine with getting knocked out in ten seconds?

* "a flying toss": quote by the great and lovely Stephen Fry, who narrates your Harry Potter audiobooks.

UPDATE (2014-01-09): My Spring college/work schedule just became really complicated; I won't be able to play on a consistent basis. I also don't have any experience maintaining linkshells. If someone creates such a linkshell, let me know; I'd like to join yours!Â Thumbsup

I'm down for a LS like this to be made though I do get a little serious in PvP (in past mmos) I am not giving a flying pig's bottom about win/lose ratio until they fix PvP and add a ranking system or something but I'd like a nifty amount of wars. D: Want that PvP gear son.

Thanks for showing interestÂ Big Grin

If no one creates such a linkshell (or one hasn't already been created), I might try to start one when I come back from vacation in a week's time -- providing, of course, that there are enough people who think it's an okay idea.

This is pretty much the only way I could actually enjoy pvp :p

I hate the epic displays of epeen-ness, and my class is broken rants that seem to accompany all pvp, everywhere, and so typically avoid it like the plague. But this sounds like it could be a fun way to approach it.

If I ever considered PvP, which I doubt, this is definitely something I'd pursue. I won't be joining but I completely support the idea. Good luck!

Eh, I would love this. The thing that always kept me away from PVP the most are PVPers, namely the ones for whom a loss is literally the end of the world.
And in this case...oh my, I want those armors!
Though keep in mind I'm not good and have Â bad latency, just saying <.<

I love this idea. Count me in. I love competition, but I don't really tie much of my ego to it. I consider fun to be a better metric, and I love playing with like-minded people.

"Winning Not Necessary" -- Idea for a PvP linkshell?
